Our hearts go out to the Massie family at this devastating time. Representative Massie and his wife, Rhonda, were high school sweethearts and spent their adult lives together building a tremendous legacy.

She was valedictorian at our high school where we went to the Prom together, accepted at MIT and Harvard, earned a Mechanical Engineering degree from MIT, and devoted her life to our family. pic.twitter.com/7Aui2MhHzc

Thankfully, they have the beautiful memories of this last trip together, but the shock must be so very jarring.

Thank you @anncormican for reminding me of this rare recording of Rhonda singing (on YouTube). I loved her singing voice and she tolerated my out-of-time swarping at a banjo. This was Mike Maggard’s #nothinfancyfarm liberty event, August 28, 2011. pic.twitter.com/MZ71NBdjvC

Through memories shared, it is so clear the Massies had a true friendship and partnership and were an example of a loving and supportive union.

Our sympathies to @RepThomasMassie on the loss of his wife and partner of 35 years.

Rhonda was not only Congressman Massie’s life partner, but his philosophical partner as well.

Her passing is not only the congressman’s loss, but America’s as well.

I joked yesterday about the European inability to comprehend the virtues of a rugged homesteading wife.

Here’s the absolute pinnacle. High school sweethearts, went to MIT together, founded a robotics company together, while entire time mastering an off-grid lifestyle together. https://t.co/Jvb9Z6mxwA

Literally built their house by cutting wood and quarrying stone from their own Kentucky property.

The most amazing marriage imaginable.

Many condolences to the Massie family and a respectful salute to Rhonda for creating such an amazing life and family.https://t.co/RzppXh0H3z
